ALGEBRA - 6 KEY SKILLS TO MASTER

(consider this a review for the unit test)

Skill 1: Simplifying Expressions (apply: a(b+c) = ab+ac and collect like terms)







Skill 2: Simplifying Numerical Expressions using BEDMAS














Skill 3: Factoring Expressions using ab + ac = a(b+c)







one example explained in detail



challenging examples




Skill 4 : Solving Equations by applying opposite operations

















Skill 5: Solving Equations with Fractions (multiply numerators by the LCM)
















Skill 6: Isolating a Variable in a Formula (by applying opposite operations)










lots and lots of examples! (definitely pause the video and try these before listening to his solutions)
